We understand the importance and significance of peace, and we treasure it now, but, looking back to the struggles of our past heroes, while looking at the situation today, I suppose the peace is somewhat in danger as there are a lot of hoaxes and hate speeches and provocations going both online and in reality by some people who have the odds to create hatred against others and cause a rift. The truth about it is that it Even if hoaxes and hate acts are being propagated by two or more parties, the argument is still hopelessly pointless, for as we have observed, the magnificence of humanity lies in a world free from bloody conflicts, racial intolerance, welcoming hostility, sham, and everything else that threatens peace. All are treated fairly, with decency and care, regardless of their culture or faith. These hope-responsive people stand beside one another, for they appreciate and honor the other’s work, isn’t that lovely?

However, it is still difficult for me to comprehend because many individuals are still hostile and continue to engage in hate speech on social media platforms such as Instagram, Facebook, and many more, and also inciting inter-community tensions with hoaxes. In contribution towards the establishment of world peace, precious reader, I submit to you that these fake news do not easily consume you. Avoiding fake news in most cases is very simple, and here are some of the strategies that one can employ in the struggle against fake news. Or check on the user:

Check the sources. Even if you get some news from social media like Facebook, Instagram, WhatsApp, or even covering Twitter, do not immediately center on them. Why not try checking first where the news has originated from? As most of the time, hoax or fake news does not give the author's name or even the source and sometimes gives a fake name that is vague.

Don’t be easily tempted to click that provocation title. An article with a goading title should not make you click it without thinking. Most of the time, people making hoax news will come up with interesting titles that are not common or shocking to capture the attention of readers to read the news. To avoid such potential hoaxes and overreactions, please try to find and read the news or information from other sources that are credible and reliable.

Be aware of the timeline of the news story and the publication date.

Hoaxe news and fake news are often aimed at unprocessed news reports that have some factual news within them that may be already known to the people; the ideas or the event being recreated may go back in time as the distortion of when events actually report. thereby creating the illusion that the events that they are reporting on had just occurred in real time.
